OK, I followed with updated tutorial 
https://github.com/opencog/atomspace/tree/master/examples/rule-engine/chaining 
and I managed to run my first cog-fc with the normal result. I would like 
to raise two points:

1) tutorial says that cog-fc has 4 arguments, but my version of opencog (as 
or start of 2017) of cog-fc still has 3 arguments: source/rule base/focus 
set. There is no variable-declaration argument. Just wanted to note for 
those who use this thread for troubleshooting cog-fc.

2) *I wonder about necessity of source as an argument, why we need this? 
*Business 
Rule engines (like JBoss Drools) use entire Atomspace working memory as 
domain for reasoning - somehow first rule is selected and matched with 
facts and first inference is made and so this process continues? Focus set 
can be emtpy Set and then the entire Atomspace becomes the focus set. Maybe 
we can do this with source as well - maybe empty source will designed 
entire Atomspace as a source?
